According to reports in Italy, Milan are absolutely desperate to sell Nelson Dida, but are finding it an impossible task due to the goalkeeper’s astronomical wages.

Dida’s 2007/08 season with the Rossoneri was nothing short of disastrous, and there have been constant reports in the press that he will be sold this summer.

The first half of the Brazilian’s campaign was ridden with errors, including a costly one in the Milan derby before Christmas. The 34-year-old eventually lost his place to Zeljko Kalac in January, and did not feature again for the remainder of the campaign.

This coming campaign, Dida looks likely to be third choice goalkeeper behind Kalac and the returning Christian Abbiati.

With this in mind, it is being reported in Italy that Milan have no space for the 34-year-old and are absolutely desperate to offload him from their wage bill.

Unfortunately, the club are finding it impossible to find a buyer because Dida currently earns an astronomical €4.5m a season, with his contract at San Siro running until 2010.

If the Rossoneri were to release Dida on a free transfer it could cost them a small fortune in compensation. Thus Milan find themselves in a sticky situation over what exactly to do with the former Cruzeiro man.

Erm Morratti is the exception here, not because they are able to spend (Juve and Milan can spend BIG too), but because they are so loathsome, considering the situation.

Ok forget about Inter, that's why I said "And I'm not talking about just Inter" hence mentioning Fiorentina who don't have the financial backing or the sponsership money that we do managed a far better mercato then we have, ie in terms of money coming in and money going out.

We practically had to grovel to get R10 on the cheap from Barca it's not something that I like to see Milan doing, Galliani talkingto the press constantly about not having any money is turining us into a luaghing stock around Europe. You wouldn't believe all the stick I hear about Milan either at work, school or forums. Galliani does not need to air Milan's dirty laundry out he's making Milan look like a mid table team with his comments to the media

Han, are you my twin in disguise? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I cannot believe how I can agree with someone so much (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

Thing is Dida is on £4m a season(£80,000 a week) and no team can continue to pay that much for a player who doesn't earn the club any money. players who score goals are going to be the ones who sell shirts etc, but 'keepers aren't hence why forwards earn more than 'keepers. You say that no 'keeper is perfect but IMO Buffon is 99% perfect. Buffon would probably get us another 10 points per season with his saves which could mean the difference between first and second place. fact of the matter is that Gigi is the best 'kepper around IMO.

Is the flame old enough for Milan? and, more importantly, can we get it cheap? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Good old Galliani (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

It is called reality han ... You live close to Italy .. And I am sure you are familiar with the situation they are in.

Being a laughing stock ?! Why ? Milan is the most title winning club in the World !!

Milan is not a midtable club ... it is just that the president of Milan, so happens to be Italy's PM and as such, he needs to keep a low profile, ESPECIALLY with the situation that Italy is in.


Fiorentina are not as rich as you make them seem. And their summer spending is not really something to brag about, but for their standards it is .. BUT they needed to strengthen their squad, because of the CL.


well han, I am sorry you get BS from ppl ... For me, ppl know what Milan is in footballing terms as Milan has been on top of Europe for the past 5 years, making the final every other year!! they don't question these details ... Milan has given you so many reasons to be proud as a fan, I am sorry that you choose these minor details that are unfootball related to put u down. This is by far the club on top of the footballing pyramid!
